During the project the following types of work were carried out:
● Removing brush for the future trail -800 meters
● Clearing and leveling 600 meters of new trail
● Forming 4 spacious areas for tour groups to gather: 4x8m, 6x8m, 2x2m, 4x4m
Experienced GBT volunteers participated on the project (For each participant, this was far from their first project!) from Moscow, St. Petersburg, Khabarovsk, Irkutsk, Magnitogorsk.
Volunteers from southern Sakhalinsk and Korsakov also joined to work on the trail for two weeks: families with children, adult volunteers, environmental students, and just caring people.
At the moment, trail construction has continued under the guidance of Botanical Garden staff and partners.
The Project “Trail of Knowledge” is a partner project between the affiliate Sakhalin Branch of the Botanical Garden-Institute of the Far Eastern Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences and the GBT Association with the financial support of the “Sakhalin-1” International consortium.
